Awful remakes.
« on: December 16, 2023, 07:38:32 pm »
Total Recall. I've only just gotten round to watching this version staring Colin Farrell. I know you shouldn't compare remakes to the originals, they have to be judged on their own merits, but imho this is a shambles of a movie. No humour, unrealistic CGI, actors performing stunts as if they were Terminators and it's not even set on Mars! No, the excitement switches between Britain and Australia! :rolleyes:
Any other remakes that should never have seen the light of day? Do share...

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory- Gene Wilder was sinister in a comical way. Johnny Depp was just creepy.

Annie- the 1982 movie was set in the 1933 and that was part of the charm of it- the time it was set it. Yet the 2014 remake was set in 2014 and just crap.

I agree with the Chocolate Factory!
